    okay well i was webcamming with my friend and all of a sudden my aim froze..so i easily just exit it ( like i Always do ) and then i restarted my laptop.. well bad choice, when it went on, it showed me something about how its not working because a program is damagining it. so i had to option to ..
    Safe Mode
    Safe mode with networking
    Safe mode with commant prompt (something like that)

    Last known good configuration ( your most recent settings that worked)

    Start windows normally

    Well i tried ALL of them, and when i do, it brings me to this big screen that says

    " A problem has been dectected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
    UMMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME
    If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer
    If problem continue, disable or removeand newly installed hardware of software. disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing . If you need to use safe mode toi remove or disable components, and then select safe mode.

    Technical Information:
    ****Stop : (nummbers with lots of zeros)"

    okay well the things i installed today was Aim 6.0 and a game called Flyff. But flyff should be safe since i used the play it alot. i cant acess safe mode because it BRINGS ME BACK TO THE SCREEN AGAIN !! someone people help! i'm dont want to spend my vacation without my internet !!

    by the way, i have avertec 2100 part # AV2150-EH1

    What number does it give you, with all the zeros? That tell you the error that the computer is having. Most likely though, you will have to format the computer and install Windows again.

    boot into recover console and run chkdsk

    To start the computer and use the Recovery Console

    From the Setup CD-ROM

    Insert the Setup compact disc (CD) and restart the computer. If prompted, select any options required to boot from the CD.
    When the text-based part of Setup begins, follow the prompts; choose the repair or recover option by pressing R. If you have a dual-boot or multiple-boot system, choose the installation that you need to access from the Recovery Console. When prompted, type the Administrator password. At the system prompt, type Recovery Console commands; type help for a list of commands, or help commandname for help on a specific command.

    To exit the Recovery Console and restart the computer, type exit.

    well this could be windows is corrupt

    but most likely this is hard drive failure.

    If reinstilation doesnt fix the problem you will have to get another 2.5 inch hd.
